Seeing the titles of Newbery's I noticed I hadn't read any of them or even had any interest in them but I want to get a copy of Freedom Over Me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22559214.post-24976645141621799632017-01-23T22:40:42.612-05:002017-01-23T22:40:42.612-05:00I will add The Someday Birds to my list!

And my students who have read it, and Inquisitor's Tale, loved it. I haven't read Barnhill's book yet, but I hope to get to it. However, the beauty of all this is that we don't have to agree :) Check out my post on Wednesday to see the books my students wanted to win :) Kellee Moye (@kelleemoye)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11912740016918990989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22559214.post-32634905358739617452017-01-23T15:15:37.160-05:002017-01-23T15:15:37.160-05:00Thank you for the recommendation of another book i...Thank you for the recommendation of another book involving a child on the autism spectrum.

I haven't read the other winners so I will try to get to them eventually. The Someday Birds Looks interesting so I've added it to my ever expanding list of books.

Several of my (female) students really loved The Girl Who Drank the Moon (as did I). The Inquisitor's Tale is a bit slow to build but worth it for sure. I didn't think much of Wolf Hollow and Freedom Over Me is definitely one of those books a teacher would use / make you read but not one a kid would pick up on their own.Katie TheLogonautshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01692992719352402255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22559214.post-69335564160346890922017-01-23T10:34:25.919-05:002017-01-23T10:34:25.919-05:00I would say even the font on the cover of The Some...I would say even the font on the cover of The Someday Birds is oddly endearing.
